BB: USAC: USA South Athletic Conference

[Falcon2720]

It will be tough for Methodist to win a game in the USA-South/ODAC Challenge since they are going to be in Texas when the tournament is being played.

Looking at CNU's schedule I don't think their even playing in the tournament.

I know NCWC is playing in it.

The USA-South/ODAC Challenge is Feb 14-15 in Greensboro, NC. 

Wesleyan plays BC, RMC, and GC. 
Greensboro plays GC, BC, RMC.
Averett plays RMC, GC, BC.

CNU is not in the tournament. They play Lynchburg at home on 2/14 and Gwynedd-Mery on February 15. After that, it's RMC on 2/18, and Rowan on February 20 and 21.

Sorry guys, i was told that all teams would be playing, and didn't know that it was only 3 teams from each conference, but thanks for letting me know. With the schedule you gave me, who do you guys think will be the biggest match up and best to watch, as i plan to go watch the tournament. Sadly, I was looking forward to seeing CNU play the most, but watching Gboro's offence play again, along with watching Moore from Wesleyan and Hildreth from Averett pitch will be just exciting. Who is the favorite to win the tournament, which game is the best to watch, and who do you think will be the most exciting player to watch?

[Falcon2720]

Bridgewater and Randolph-Macon are two of the better teams in the ODAC.  Bridgewater was in the regional in 06 and 07 while Macon was in the regional last year 08.  If I was going to watch a game I would want to see Wesleyan vs. BC or RM-C or Greensboro vs. BC or RM-C.  Those games are the must see games.

Next year I believe every team in the USA-South is coming to Greensboro to play in the tournament.  Should be interesting.

This is going to be a great early season test for the ODAC teams.  BC will be working on finding arms to replace its arms lost from last season, R-MC will be tough, with A LOT returning, and Guilford could be a surprise team this year.

[baseballbaseball]

i agree, BC game against GBORO will be a big test to see how good their arms will be with the lineup the GBORO team will bring. R-MC will be a tough team returning everyone and should be fun to watch. But also the ODAC could run into alot of problems if one of the teams have to see Moore from NC Wesleyan and Hildreth from Averett back-to-back, but also taking a win from those two pitchers could put  not only their team on the national radar, but also give their team the confidence to beat anyone.

Since we have been talking about the ODAC and USA SOUTH so much, if you guys had to put together a starting line-up position wise, not hitting,  what would it be? and even more interesting who would be your coaches

Fellas,
I am a new NCWC dad.  My son is a freshman pitcher on the team and I have been reading your treads which are extremely interesting.  Hope to meet some of you at the games although we'll only make about half due to travel from VA is about 2 hours for us.  Who will replace Pecora in RF this year? and has M. Smith caught on with a professional team...I look at his stats and they are massive.

I am a NCWC alum I also live in VA, in Norfolk.  Hope to see you at a few games.  I usually make it back to 2 games a year.  Good luck to your son I hope he gets some innings as a Freshman.

Looks like I will be at that game.  No other game in town that weekend.  Maybe my only chance to get a look at Lynchburg this year.

hey guys season is just around the corner and being that i am a usa south fan i only know the main players i put my eye on last year. with that said lets put together a pre season 1rst team all conference team    interested on what you have guys bring to the table

[GboroKing]

3 guys to keep an eye on from the Greensboro College group are Richard Allred, Michael Parker, and Josh Spicer. Allred and Spicer are #1 and #2 starter and Parker is a shortstop who can flat out mash the ball.
